Abstract
Systems, devices, and methods are described herein for searching for entities based on trust score and geography. The trust score may be calculated between entities including, but not limited to, human users, groups of users, organizations, or businesses/corporations and may take into account a variety of factors, including verification data, network connectivity, publicly available information, ratings data, group/demographic information, location data, and transactions to be performed, among others. A user may search for entities within a certain geographic location that meet a desired trust score. The results of the search may be generated for display on a user device, for example, by generating a map that shows the current location of the user device and the identified entities. The search may be filtered by entering an anticipated activity or transaction to be performed or desired by the user, and thereby returning entities that are associated with the activity or transaction.
